Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on the number of organizations and individuals registered at any time during calendar year 1995 under the Federal Regulation of Lobbying Act of 1946 and registered or identified at any time during calendar year 1996 under the Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995, focusing on the number of organizations and individuals that: (1) were registered under the 1995 act but not under the 1946 act; or (2) were registered under the 1946 act but not under the 1995 act.
GAO noted that: (1) overall, almost two-and-a-half times as many organizations and individuals were registered or identified under the 1995 act compared with those who had been registered under the 1946 act; (2) GAO found that 10,612 organizations and individuals registered under the 1995 act who had not been previously registered under the 1946 act; and (3) GAO also found that 1,863 lobbyists who had been registered under the 1946 act did not register under the 1995 act.
